The format is the same as comps.xml. Here's a quick test file; put it
in your repository at the same level as the "headers" directory:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE comps PUBLIC "-//Red Hat, Inc.//DTD Comps info//EN" "comps.dtd">
<comps>
<group>
<id>testing-group</id>
<name>testing-group</name>
<default>true</default>
<description>Test group</description>
<uservisible>true</uservisible>
<packagelist>
<packagereq type="default">xfig</packagereq>
</packagelist>
</group>
</comps>
Then you can do "yum groupinstall testing-group" and it will install
xfig. Add more <packagereq> items to put more packages in the group.
Add more <group> stanzas to create more groups.
